Bad patch for Hakim Ziyech

Galatasaray gave the news of Hakim Ziyechleft injured during the match of the second day of the qualifiers for the African Cup of Nations (CAN Morocco 2025) between Morocco and Lesotho, which ended in victory for the Atlas Lions (1-0).

There is some less than satisfactory news about Ziyech’s health. In a statement, Galatasaray said that the Moroccan international felt a sharp pain in the upper right part of his back during the match between Morocco and Lesotho and that he is suffering from a grade 2 strain in a group of muscles in his upper back. More precisely, it is a partial tear and a severe strain, for which he must undergo in-depth medical examinations.
